Rundown: Bolt XT & Bolt LT

Wed, May 16, 2018

We’re super excited to introduce the latest generation of our industry-leading wireless monitoring systems: the Bolt XT & Bolt LT! With a high-end, feature-packed version and a budget-friendly version, the Bolt line is making zero-delay video accessible to the entire cinema and broadcast world.

Want to see how they compare?

Bolt XT

What Is It?

The Bolt XT is the next generation of the Bolt family, featuring flawless HD video, incredible range, smart design and a suite of powerful software tools.

Available in 500 ft, 1000 ft. and 3000 ft. models.

What Does It Do?

Bolt XT transmits pristine 1080p60 HD video from a camera or video source to receivers instantly, allowing for real-time monitoring of every shot. Each Bolt XT transmitter can be paired with up to 4 receivers, including 3rd generation Bolt receivers (of the same range), 703 Bolts and Sidekick IIs.

In addition to wireless monitoring, Bolt XT also offers several software features:

3D LUTs - apply looks directly to the video feed. Upload your own LUTs or select from presets native in the Bolt.

The Bolt LT is an affordable zero-delay monitoring system with the same wireless power of the industry-leading Bolt XT line. The LT sacrifices some hardware and software features, but more than makes up for it with an incredible price-to-performance ratio.

Available in 500 ft. and 1000 ft. models.

What Does It Do?

Like the Bolt XT, the Bolt LT delivers 1080p60 HD video from transmitter to receiver, allowing for real-time monitoring on external monitors. Bolt LT is perfect for filmmakers on a budget and is compatible with Bolt XT, 3rd Generation Bolts, Sidekick II, 703 Bolt, and FOCUS Bolt TX / RX models of the same range.
